CHARLES PABST, OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 321,522, dated July '7,1885.

(No model.)

To all whom it may concern;

Be it known that I, CHARLES PABST, of the city and county ofPhiladelphia, Pennsylvania, haveinvented a new and Improved Lamp, ofwhich the following is a full, clear, and exact description.

The object of my invention is to provide a new and improvedkerosene-lamp which is simple in construction, ornamental, and can beeasily adjusted on its support.

Reference is to be had to the accompanying drawings, forming part ofthis specification, in which similar letters of reference indicatecorresponding parts in all the figures.

Figure 1 is a side view of my improved lamp. Fig. 2 is an enlargedlongitudinal partly-sectional View of the upper part of the standard andthe socket of the bell-carrier, and Fig. 3 is a side view of amodification of the same.

A standard, A, either solid or hollow, is secured on a base, 13.

A ring, G, for receiving the lampbody D, is held on the lower end of arod or carrier, E, provided with an eye or ring, F, through which thestandard passes, and with an apertured arm, G, through which thestandard A also passes.

An ornamental balancingwvcight, H, is held on the free end of the arm G.A pin, J, is secured to a wire, K, having its opposite end secured to aring, I, held loosely on the standard, which pin J is passed through oneof a series of apertures, L, in the standard A, the carrier resting onthe said pin.

A rod, M, is provided at its lower end with a socket, N, for receivingthe upper end of the rod E or the upper end of the standard A.

A reflector, O, is provided with an eye, P, through which the rod Mpasses, the said eye resting on a shoulder of the rod E or the eye I mayhe slipped over the upper end of rod 13, as shown in Fig. 1. The upperend of the rod M is bent, and a smoke-bell, Q, is suspended from theupper'bent end of the rod, the said bell being held above the chimney Rof the lamp 1).

The weight H connterbalances the lamp and turns with the lamp, which caneasily be turned around the standard and thelight thus thrown in anydesired direction.

If the rod M is held on the rod E, the bell will turn with the lamp andwill always be held above the chimney.

If the balance-weight His removed, the carrier can be hung on a hook, S,on the wall or other object by means of the ring F.

The carrier can easily be raised or lowered.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secureby Letters Patent-- 1. In a lamp, the combination, with the standard A,having apertures L, of a lampcarrier adapted to turn on the saidstandard, the pin J, the chain K, and the ring I, substantially asherein shown and described.

2. In a lamp, the combination, with the standard A, of a revolvinglamp-carrier, the vertical rod E thereon, and the rod M, having asocket, N, in its lower end, and bent at its upper end to allow of asmoke-bell being sus pended therefrom, substantially as set forth.

3. The combination, with the standard A, of a revolving lamp-carrier, O,mounted there on and provided with the removable balancingweight H,substantially as set forth.

4. The combination, with the rod E, having a lamp-holding ring, 0, aring, F, and a reduced shouldered portion at its upper end, ofasmoke-bell support having a socket to engage said shouldered portion,substantially as set forth.

5. In a lamp of the character described, the upright rod E, having thelamp-supporting ring on one side and the eye F and apertured arm G onits opposite side, the aperture of the arm G being in vertical alignmentwith the eye F, whereby the rod, with its parts, may be applied to avertical lampstandard or to a hook on the wall, substantially as setforth.
